"Those kids were persecuted for no reason."

Not for "no reason". They were persecuted for being rich white kids in a town with a large black population and a prosecutor seeking re-election. If the stripper was white and everything else was the same, Nifong wouldn't have persued it.

They were persecuted because the district is very black, Nifong needed the black vote, and he played the race card to get re-elected.

Thanks for the reminder to never have any of my kids apply to Duke when they approach college age. If the local crime rate don't get ya, the D.A. will!
